Hello From The North Shore

To the tune of Adele’s Hello, a poignant song from someone who used to be terribly important…

Hello
It’s Tony
I was wondering if after all these months we ought to speak,
To go over
What you need
They say you’re busy in the new job
But I could do more helping

Hello
Did you hear me?
I’m in Manly in my office playing lots of Solitaire
But I’m still younger
(Than you)
I can fight a fire or swim, but I’d be more use over there

There’s not much difference
Between us
Just ignore the polls

Hello from on Sydney Road
You must’ve missed the area code
When you phoned to tell me
You need me back within reach
When you called, I must have
Been out on the beach

Hello from the north shore
What would you just ignore me for?
No don’t say you’re sorry
It was all in the game
But it won’t matter, don’t we
Have the same general aim
Any more?

Hello
How’s Lucy?
It’s so difficult for me to talk about myself, you know me.
I hope
Things are well
Did you ever figure the source of those leaks, I think it might be Julie
It’s no secret
That the girls can get
Emotional at times…

Hello from the north shore
What would you just ignore me for?
No don’t say you’re sorry
It was all in the game
But it won’t matter, don’t we
Have the same general aim
Any more?
Ooh, any more
Ooh, any more
Ooh, any more
Any more…
